Review Summary: Saint Saga #27
Review: 1948's "Call for the Saint" marks a partial, but nonetheless welcome, return to the old (1930s) Saint from the sanitised and lobotomised G-man of the War years.

In the first story, set in Chicago, the Saint works to find the brain behind a protection racket; in the second, he unravels the mystery behind the rise of an apparently talentless New York boxer.

Both stories, unusually at this late date, also feature Patricia Holm and Hoppy Uniatz -- the latter in particularly fine form.

P.S. For a list of -- and discussion of -- all Charteris's Saint books, see my So You'd Like To... Guide.
